There have been many inquiries at Bureau headquarters concerning the silver lead strike in California, about seventy miles out in the Mo­ have desert, from Los Angeles. Much interest has been shown too in the latest gold strike in British Colum­ bia. “ The grass grows green a long way o ff,” is truer o f mining than anything else we can think of. As we have frequently called to atten­ tion in these columns, even if the newspaper reports are to be accepted at their face value, nothing much better has ever been reported than is in plain sight from our doors. There is less claimed for Leadville, California, than is acknowledged to be in Galice alone. For some reason, a bright penny on the other side of a glacier or a desert, looms larger than a double eagle in the front yard. There is an old adage that “ Good wine needs no bush,” and we have always taken the attitude here that a real mining district would event­ ually come into its own, without the need o f. so-called high pressure ad­ vertising. We may be wrong, but we are going to stick a while longer to just that stand. Of course the new “ strike” is near Los Angeles, a very substantial town built on nothing but persistent boosting, just now in need of something to offset the Florida boom and the smallpox scare, but that might not argue con­ clusively against the finding o f metal near. So far as the evidence goes, however the present boom looks very much like a preparation for a run Hayden, Robert Goff, J. R. Bates o f suckers. and W. W.
